You will drive in stop-and-go traffic across the land, hopefully in many battleground states, with the book cover just large enough to be showing Kerry's hopelessly botoxed-yet-still-wrinkled face, with the big statement "UNFIT FOR COMMAND".
People, listen up. Our intent is to reach hundreds of thousands of Americans in the middle, Americans not decided yet, who may have heard vagulely about such a book and who normally don't follow news as closely as we do, or have had their news filtered by the mainline media.
This will be the perfect, topical, current and mobile ANTI-KERRY mini poster and PRO-SWIFT VETS book promotional vehicle. It may well also create doubt among the wavering voter. It will certainly cause interest.
Think of the many American motorists who will ponder to themselves:
"Hmm. What's that on that car? Looks like a book cover. Looks like Kerry. It is. Hmmmm. "Unfit...for...Command"...I wonder if that is that book I heard something about? Hmm, maybe I'll have to buy it, too." This is the target.
This will be a quick, simple, THOUGHT-PROVOKING anti-Kerry political message at the grassroots to create even more name identification for this issue and awareness about this great and vital book.

I'll be using this idea soon.
Good idea!
Everyone should go to their local bookstores and complain when as we know will happen, the book will be shelved somewhere in the back of the store if at all.
Ouch! Rather harsh treatment of a soon-to-be-collectible dust cover...
How about PRINTING a full-size copy of the cover, and mounting THAT in your rear or side window?
I think it would be more cost efficient, though we need to have people buy the book.
For your info: As a part-time booker seller, I would advise you to take off the original dust jacket, and put the book in a generic cellophane or plasticized jacket that can be bought at book or office supply stores, to protect it while reading. Put the original dust jacket in a dirt and smoke free place like a safe. You need to keep it from getting tore, stained and bent. The resale value of the book is much more with the jacket as without it.
I'll keep carrying the book in public long after I've finished reading it.
BTW, how's it playing in Japan?
Meet the real John Kerry - read UNFIT FOR COMMAND
It will spread like bush fire
Why not just go to Kinkos and blow it up to poster size?
The news is getting the story>>?? HA! Try again.
On ABC news radio at the top of the hour, they played a sound bite of EFnK's latest diatribe against them, as well as alluding to, as fact, the notion that they are funded by republicrats.
The leftist MSM gets NOTHING...ever. But I can tell you what we SHOULD give them....
Hellofanidea!
great idea! We must use street-level tactics against the wealthy Left and their lapdog Old Media.

I was in San Francisco tonight and UNBELIEVABLY saw exactly what you have suggested! The owner of a white van had photocopied the front jacket of UNFIT FOR COMMAND and placed it on his back window. I gave him the thumbs up!
Bump for a GREAT idea!!!
This probably has a copyright thingy against it...but for those who are crafty:
1) Scan dust cover into computer
2) Buy some of the blank printable fabric iron-ons
3) Print photo onto fabric & iron-on appropriate t-shirt, flag, seat of your jeans, toilet paper covers, etc.
Any ping list owners want to ping their friends?
I got my first flip-off yesterday from the book jacket image magnetic sticker I have on my vehicle. I think the guy who flipped me off was madder that I was laughing at him when he did it.
Note: you can buy Xerox brand printable magnetic sheets for about $12.00 for four 8.5 x 11 inch sheets at most Staples, K Marts, and Walmarts. Or you can buy two 6 x 9 inch sticky-backed magnetic sheets at The Container Store for $2.99, onto which you can mount a copy of the book cover.
Then just sit back and watch in your rearview mirror as liberal heads explode.
